The hotel and room are pretty new. The service is good and professional. And they offers good breakfast and nice dining lobby. It is superb overall except the room smelled a little bit (the new-furnished smell).

Walk to beach, quiet neighborhood
Avania is a short walk from the beach. The lobby and rooms have all been updated and redecorated. Our room on the ground floor had a private patio with two chairs and a small table. Shower was great and easy to use, though bathroom is small. Breakfast room is light and airy with loads of seating and good food. We would stay there again!!

I was greeted by Oswaldo at the desk and he was very polite friendly and remembered me from the last visit! The toilet paper was very thin! The breakfast was really good! Plenty to choose from! Parking was great about 20 feet from our room!
